Ingredients
--1 1/2 stick of butter (12 T) --6 T flour --3 1/2 cups heavy cream --2 t dried thyme--2 t kosher salt--4 t dried mustard--1 t black pepper--3 brown potatoes--3 sweet potatoes--2 parsnips --1 white onion, chopped--2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or pecorino romano--green onion for garnish (totally optional)
Directions
--wash and peel your potatoes and parsnips. I chose to leave a bit of potato skin on for color and texture; your choice.

--slice them longways, then slice in 1/4 inch slices

--chop up white onion. Or maybe dice it? Make little tiny pieces.
--plop veggies into stoneware

Combine your spices in small bowl.

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Slowly add your flour, stirring constantly for 3-5 minutes. Then slowly add your milk/cream, and spices, stirring continuously to blend.

Pour mixture over potatoes and parsnips, and close the crock lid.

Cook on Low for 8-9 hours or high for 4-5.

Before serving, stir in the shredded cheese until it disappears.

Garnish with green onion if you are feeling fancy.
